🪓 An axed F1 driver's sudden lifeline?

Cadillac securing a place on the F1 grid in 2026 could be great news for the most unfortunate victim of a wild silly season.

I honestly don’t mind making room for so many young drivers, but Stroll having a seat while Bottas doesn’t just feels wrong

[RandomGuy]

I really hope he gets one of the seats at Cadillac. It's absolutely criminal that he doesn't have a seat while Stroll out of all people does

[legendaryjueha]

Absolutely right choice to take valtteri Bottas as no 1 signing for Cadillac. His experience and knowledge are so helpful for startup team. Wish he got the seat at Cadillac.

[lndseymsp]

What about K-Mag though? He's driven for Cadillac before and will only be 33 years old in 2026

[soundscape]

Yes please... Herta and Bottas sounds like a good initial pairing, ticking some boxes.

[SeanMather]

I want this so much. Hate to see Bottas go like this, so yes make this happen GM

[JamesBoxxy]

Herta and Bottas would be a banging line up for Cadillac's first year tbf...

[GhostlyViper]

Bottas and danny would be a fire lineup

[PimSchouten]

Should be a genius move, along with Kmag. Something i would definitely sign

[kaiserkerbeus]

Cadillac needs to get Vatteri and Danny Ric as their first driver lineup. With K-Mag as a reserve. All 3 of these drivers have years of experience which they need if they want to rise up the ranks

[Lena_the_pup]

okay i get how everyone wants danny ric and bottas, but cmon. Franco and bottas, since bottas can nurture francos talent and cadillac gets a legit multiple race experienced multiple points finished “rookie”.

[ok_kolibri]

I'm honestly seeing Sainz at Cadillac

[Andrew-rdig]

I can’t wait for 2026 that will be good for F1 to have a new team

[takemikazuchi-sama]

either Cadillac will have an all-American driver lineup (Herta and maybe with Sargeant) or have the vets (Bottas and KMag, or DannyRic if he still wants to). Or maybe one rookie and one vet tho.

[Foxcatcher]

Bottas and Ricciardo on Cadillac for the ultimate comeback season would be hype af.

[subhashgottumukkala]

funny how 36 is seen as ONLY these darts 😂

[oscarshen]

Two experienced driver would be a logical chioce for a new started, the good thing is there is plenty out of jobs. Apart from Bottas, KMag would be a good chioce giving his experience working with a starter team and his popularity in America. Thet don't need some kind of "young gun" in their first ever season.

[KingofFray]

Bring Bottas and Ricciardo and let them fight

[smithy]

For a start up and first few years, seasoned drivers makes total sense

[thiagopratezi]

Bottas can take a hike on this one, Drugovich and Herta would be the two best men for the job.
